8 weeks/ first doctor's appointment!!

I am eight weeks pregnant today. Woah! Two months down already.. Yesterday was our first doctor's appointment. We got an ultrasound and heard our little baby's heart beat! It's heart rate was 172 bpm. Wow, it's real now. We are going to be parents! Here is our little baby's first photo! If you look really close, baby Long looks like it is sitting up *posing!*
7 weeks 6 days
 The doctor's appointment went really well. We liked the facility and everyone who worked there was nice and helpful. I don't see a doctor until I go for my next appointment on March 24th.

 Today we took our 8 week chalkboard pictures. Our baby is the size of raspberry and is about 1 inch long. Other fun facts about the baby is that it is growing about a millimeter each day, has webbed fingers and toes, and is growing it's eyes, lips, nose, and other important body parts.
